Likewise ... it is like a disease, when you see every second person plugged into one of these phones. I use it when I need to, but I can't see the attraction of continually talking into one.

I have a friend who was invited to someone's house on christmas day in the afternoon for an hour. She was telling me how their 18 year old spent the entire time she was there texting, and never once acknowledged Jenny's presence or even looked up from her phone. How rude!
